| Eragon | December 16, 2006, 12:28PM |

To start off- I have not read the book. I don't know how the movie was suposed to go... But I loved it. To me it was as good as Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. So if you like at least one of those, then you'll like Eragon. The graphics were far better than either of the aforementioned movies. My fiance read the books first and he said that he was expecting more... "well more". He said that if you've read the book, you can tell where the movie had to be compacted in order for it to make sense. He was only slightly disappointed in it because he wanted more but still contests that it was better than Harry Potter. :D I was hoping for more- as I've never read the books, I still have so many questions. The ending of this movie could make it stand on its own. It doesn't have a cliff hanger ending (like Pirates of the Carribean 2). All in all, I think it was well worth the wait. And I would definately see it again. | |

| A Rebel With a Cause - James Dean Tribute | December 13, 2006, 7:46PM |
 by: Murderous_Breeze |

“Live fast, Die young, and leave a good looking corpse” For anyone who knows what this means, will certainly realize that this quote belongs to possibly the greatest cultural icon in acting history. James Dean. It is said that on the 8th of February 1931 a star was born, this in its own respect is true, but to look at it on a more global scale, and to see the after affect of his tragic death, and what hope and understanding he left, you will begin to realize that he is more then a star, but a teenage icon and undoubtedly the most inspirational character in Hollywood history. This tribute and a sort of documentary I am writing about James Dean comes from a more personal level, he has helped me realize how good life is, and that if you want something so much, there is no one and nothing that can stop you. Starring in only 3 feature films, and dying before his 25th birthday, James Byron Dean left behind a legacy, living forever young in the eyes of the world. He was a very complicated personality, in the words of his closest friends “He didn’t say much, but when he did, you knew it was sincere” James Dean entered the acting scene in many short rolls and theatre plays, his main breakthrough came when he played the disciple John, in a religious show called Hill Number One. The acting genius of James Dean would not stop their, after his first feature film, East of Eden starring Elizabeth Taylor hit the screens, in the words of the public it went “Berserk”. He was already a star, the next film, and my personal favorite would be Rebel without a cause, starring with Natalie Wood and Sal Mineo. But behind closed doors, James Dean was a very dark person battling his inner Demons. His mother died at the age of nine, and his father left him shortly after to live with relatives. The one thing that Dean always wanted in life, and even in his own words, would trade anything for, was a father figure. He wanted that father he never had, he wanted someone to play basketball with and to talk to and that can understand him. He was a very enthusiastic artist; he was poet and enjoyed relaxing with books, he also was very interested in photography. But his passion above all else was acting, and in my opinion, and the millions of critics and fans across the world, and the more websites then any classical actor ever, all of them says that he is the best, and did it better then anyone else. “When I’m behind the wheel of my Porsche going 90 miles down the road, and the wind blowing my hair, I feel more alive then ever, it’s a feeling nothing else gives me” James Dean in a interview about the new Porsche Spyder he purchased 2 weeks before his death. On September 30th, 1995, a 24 year old James Byron Dean was making his way to Salinas for a road match, in California’s Central Valley with his brand new Porsche. It was the last time the world would ever see such a character, such a personality, such genius, such enthusiasm. Their has hardly been an actor since who has not been influenced and inspired by his work, like so many legends, he died young. The young man from rural Indiana could have never dreamed of such accomplishment. “Dream as if you’ll live forever; live as if you’ll die today” James Dean | |

| Shifting the blame... | December 12, 2006, 5:33PM |
 by: Mynd-Phyx |

So, I'm sure everyone knows, or at least has heard about this protest against extremely thin fashion models, being taken up as role-models. And so, kids start to starve themselves just to look like those models. Which I'm getting tired of for a number of reasons. One, people don't like to make fun of fat people, because it might hurt their feelings, and that it's not their fault, or simply that it's rude. But, by exploiting models, and making models look like the bad guys, their doing the exact same thing. Their calling these models the 'McDonald's' of the fashion world basically. It's like "Oh well you're skinny and my daughter wants to be skinny, so it's your fault!" and can be compared to "Oh well you make fast food that my daughter wants, so it's your fault!" trick is, we all laugh at the second statement... I thought that was a bit backwards... Fat people have weight issues because they have eating disorders or tendencies driving them to eat more. Thin people have weight issues because they have eating disorders or tendencies driving them to eat less. [Found that one fun...] There are also some psychological issues with a girl who wants to starve herself just to look like the woman in the magazine. Somewhere, the parents really fucked up. And now that kid is really fucked up. It's not some models fault. But it all comes down to, shifting the blame. It's taking one thing, and then calling it something else. "It's not skinny, it's anorexic" or "It's not slender it's scrawny." Which is trait number 1 in jealousy. Taking one thing, and calling it another. If everyone were just that thin, there would be no issue with it. But since we have McDonalds and cars, super skinny models must have cheated or something like starved themselves. [This little rant came about because Dr.Phil is a manipulative bastard... Lol, I'm not even joking just watch the show and see how he twists things around to make himself the hottest thing among 30+ year old housewives.] | |

| Online Communities | December 11, 2006, 6:47PM |

Well I know this seems like a dumb thing to write about but I think that it needs to be brought to attention. People go through alot of abuse while being apart of an online community. During this day and age people are starting to believe that online is just the same as reality. Which in a way is true but only to a certain extent. But other people believe that it is their entire reality and using their knoledge of "their reality" can use it against other people. I know that there are so many people involved in online communities but there are so many pro's and con's about them. I, myself are apart of numerous online communities such as: Darkstarlings, Nexopia, Myspace, Vampirfreaks, and numerous band forums. But there is one website in particular that has such abuse that has come to my attention. Myspace has millions of profiles. But the way people look at myspace is like it is the best thing to have happen to them since sliced bread. Not true. Sure they think that they can gain fame and popularity over this website. Which can be true but the chances of this happening are slim to none. I believe that people are too blind to see this but myspace is just an online popularity contest even less mature than highschool. it feels like being back in elementary school again. it seems you get your popularity by being "whored". A cruel term used in reality to sell your body for money. Wow it seems we learn something new on the internet everyday. I have not heard this term used on any other website except myspace. And it seems to be bringing good thoughts on such a negative topic to the mind of all the users. Who honestly would like to be "whored out". Not me and everyone I know wouldn't want to be whored. So why would people use it as a good thing? Joking about prostitution is like joking around about the holocaust. Neither should be taken likely. The worst part about this website is that just by having thousands of friend you are considered famous or a "myspace legend". Who really wants to be a legend on a website. Who really cares that they have thousands of friends. The majority of people I know on that website just use their friends to make more friends and so on and so forth. Its just a vicous cycle of back stabbing and competition. Just like highschool. I didn't think that people could go through such abuse on website until it happened to me on myspace. If you dont look a certain way your a loser, if you dont act a certain way (a complete asshole or bitch to everyone you talk to) your uncool. I dont see how people can be apart of such a degrading thing. The way I grew up if people didn't like you for who you are then dont bother with them...but myspace has changed the world not for the better but for the worse. A good thing about myspace though is that it has band profiles. Which is pretty sweet. You go on the profile...listen to samples of music the band has and you can comment about it or download it. But now that is getting ruined too. The more these "scene" kids comment the band and their music the more popular they get and they will end up getting signed and all. Which is good for a struggling band but a completely stupid way of doing it. The band shouldn't get signed because of a bunch of little kids saying they are cool. In order for a band actually realise what its like to work hard they have to start from scratch. The website is so biased its not funny. If the band wants to get popular fast all they have to do is make friends with a "popular" person. And from there the person will then recomend the band and or "whore" the band out to people. I believe the website used to be fun until the "scene" became huge. Now it is runed by a bunch of highschool outcasts who take fucked up picture and give themselves name which dont make sense. To be someone reality is one thing but to re-create yourself to be what everyone else likes is another. Thats how the website is ran. If your a big loser at school...change everything about you and then you can tell other people whether or not they are cool. I honestly just wish the people of myspace would just grow up and mature a little bit. Their life isn't the internet so think about that. Realise that just because your not popular in school doesn't mean you can tell people what is wrong with them on the internet. Just stop the stupidity and grow the fuck up. | |

| just an essay i did for engl 112 about me and a friend i owe alot to | December 7, 2006, 11:38PM |
 by: crow |

It was a September night two years ago I was going threw a very bad depression at the time. I was invited to go to the Rocky Horror Picture Show by Amber. Little did I know that night I would meet the best friend of my life Brittany. First thing that day when I woke up I knew that I didn’t want to be alive anymore. I went threw my day as I normally do hanging out with my friend James running around the city like we normally do. We were over walking around the park and he asked me how life had been going for me over the last few weeks. I told him that things were the same as they had been. That I was still depressed and didn’t want to be here anymore and that was thinking of trying to take my life again. He told me that it’s not worth it that I have plenty to stay alive for but I didn’t believe him. Then he told me he had to get back to his place because he had a friend coming over and told me not to do anything stupid to stop in later that night. I told him id stop by and I walked off the other direction further into the park. The trees where losing there leaves as the wind was blowing the park smelled of roses for some odd reason. I walked over to the fallen tree that sat over a small crick and climbed up on it and sat down in the middle of it. I was completely surrounded by trees and brush no one would be able to see me there. I took a razor blade out of my pocket that I had with me the whole time as I put it up to my wrist I heard some one walking threw the park close to where I was sitting. I wasn’t going to let that stop me from doing it. Then my cell phone rang it was my mom wondering were I was, I told her I was at the park and would be home soon. I put my cell phone and the razor blade back in my pocket and laid back on the tree and looked up at the sky riddled with clouds. I asked myself why I didn’t do it why I didn’t just let the phone ring and just make the cut. I really didn’t know at that point in time but I new I told James I would stop in. Now I had decided to go ahead and go over to James’s house. As I walked back threw the park towards are neighborhood I seen a few familiar faces but didn’t say anything to them I just kept walking. I came up on the busy street and wasn’t paying much attention I was almost hit by a car but I didn’t really care. I finally made my way to his house and knocked on the door Amber answered it to let me in. I said hi to Amber and walked threw his messy front room there was trash and dishes were every where and it didn’t smell too great either. I sat down on the chair that was empty and rested my head on my lap Amber asked if I was ok and I just said yes I normally didn’t tell people about my problems because they where mine and mine alone. We all sat around listening to slipknot for a few hours no one really talked much. I still couldn’t stand the smell so I decided to go outside and sit on the porch. Soon after everyone was outside with me talking about things that they had been doing during the day I just sat there silent and listened to every one talk like I normally do. Then I got up to leave I wanted to be alone for a while I started walking away and Amber came up to me and asked if I wanted to go to Rocky Horror with her and some of her friends that night I said sure why not. She told me to be at her house by eight o’clock that night I said I would be. I started walking again threw the streets of my neighborhood listening to the dogs bark like crazy at me as I walked by. I decided to take the scenic route back to my house so I walked up and jumped down into the dry creek that runs threw are neighborhood. My mother called me again and asked for me to come back to the house to help out with the dishes so I told her I would be there in a few minutes. I then tripped over a rock and almost hurt myself again. I knew that I needed to get home so I climbed up the steep dirt hill so I could walk threw the small area of woods to get back to the street. The trees and brush were thick threw this area and I got cut up a little bit from the branches. Soon I was at home again doing dishes for my mother. I asked her for a little money and some help getting ready for Rocky that night she agreed to it so I finished up the dishes and took a shower. I came back upstairs after I got dressed and sat down with my mom and we got started on spiking my hair all eight inches of it. It was funny to see how my mom was trying to do it. When she realized it wouldn’t work. I showed her how she could spike it which was to make a larger base instead of it being thin so that it would be able to stand on its own. My mom asked me why I was doing it and I told her just for fun because I was going out with some friends for the night. We finally got it finished around seven thirty so I had to leave to get to Ambers. Next I show up at Ambers house and we finish getting ready for ocky. We used black eyeliner to do my makeup which was really creepy that night it looked as if I had black blood flowing in thin lines from my eyes and mouth. Amber was still getting ready after I was done she finally finished and are ride showed up. This is when I finally met Brittany she came up to the house to get us. When I walked out the door and seen her I was amazed she was so beautiful. I had the razor blade in my hand at that point and I tossed it off to the side when I seen her. I knew that I wanted to be with her I’m not sure how but I did. We got in the car and Amber introduced me to every one which was Brittany her sister Devin and Brittany’s boyfriend Jason. All I said was bibaty ba everyone laughed as Jason drove to pick up another friend. Brittany wore a pink corset with blank panties and black fishnet stocking. She turned around and looked at me after I said the same thing about five times and asked if I could say anything else and I said yes and that’s when her sister Devin realized she already knew me. I turned and looked out the window when we were close to were we where going t pick up the other person. Now were at Karla’s apartment to get her its on the outside of downtown I gave Brittany my coat to ware because she was cold when we got back in the car after we got Emily I looked at Brittany and told her she was beautiful she blushed and turned away. Karla asked me if I was a virgin and I said no seeing as I didn’t know that she meant that if I was a virgin to seeing the show or not. She then took out her red lipstick and put a red v on my forehead meaning virgin. Jason then continued to drive to Rocky as the rest of us barked and yelled at the preps and other people we passed for the fun of it. Last we finally reach Rocky where I get to hang out with Brittany more than I was. At the beginning of the movie we all ordered a chocolate milkshake to drink. They are so good there. We all sat around joking talking about what we done during the course of the day. Brittany turned to me and started tickling me for no reason probably because I wasn’t talking all that much. I tickled her back it was a blast. Then it was time to do the time warp which is a dance in the movie we all ran up to the front of the theater and started dancing with and humping each other in large groups it was funny to me. We finished the dance and went back to are seats and continued to yell things at the screen as this was part of the movie. Its now the end of the night and were at my house there dropping me off Brittany got out of the car and I gave her a hug and told her thanks for the great night and to give me a call some time she said that should would. She whispered in my ear before she left that I would always have a friend in her and if I ever needed to talk to let her know. She got back in the car and they drove away I stood out side for a while wishing I could go back to being with them and realized I had gained the best friend of my life. It’s now the begging of October Brittany had called me and asked if I wanted to go bowling. I told her I didn’t have the money but she told me I was going anyways. They came and picked me up to go to the bowling ally I was happy to see her again we had talked a few times before this night she would call and check on me. She knew I was going threw a bad depression it was nice to know someone cared. We finally get to the bowling ally everyone else in the group is already there. We go inside and get are lane and start to bowl. I was sitting up away from the group and Brittany came up behind me and pulled me over backwards in my chair. I hit the ground and started laughing as she stood above me and asked if I was going to get up and have any fun. I got up and chased her around I finally caught her and started tickling her it was he first time I had smiled in so long. Truly it felt good to smile again I couldn’t believe it. I was actually happy for once in a long time. It felt good better than trying to off myself in a more pleasant way to put it. We bowled and ran around the place all night I had a blast we couldn’t stop laughing. Towards the end of the night Brittany and Amber were trying to pants me it was so funny they never where able to. Brittany and I are still friends have been for a long time now. She showed me that I do have something to live for and helped me to get where I am today. We don’t talk as much but we do stay in contact as often as we can. Brittany was my therapy you could say she came into my life when I needed someone the most. Brittany helped me get threw my depression and supported me to get into college. I owe her my life to be honest ill never be able to repay her for all she’s done for me so to her I say, thank you for everything. So now my outlook on life isn’t so grim anymore I’m happy to be here. | |

| No one likes the freaks anymore. | December 6, 2006, 2:01AM |
 by: Drkmtl |
|
i have noticed that now days no one likes the freaks. freaks used to be liked by most people because they thought we were interesting. why, i guess because we dress weird and think different. or maybe its that we are usally calm and collected. we dont really talk shit unless we just really dont like you. or at least i dont. i remember last year at school us "freaks" as everybody loved to call us would stand out side the lunch room in the morning. nobody got in the school without passing by us. you might have noticed before that the shit kickers start shit with mexicans alot. well not last year. i honestly dont know why but they stared shit with the freaks. at first it started out small. then the shit kickers started jumping the freaks. that shit isnt right. i dont give a fuck if i dont know the person if theyre getting jumped i step up. if you cant do it yourself then dont fucking do it at all. it wasnt just two on one it was more like five or six on one. us freaks are close. it started escalating and getting worse and worse. there were fights every day. then this also pissed us off. they started threatening the girls. that dont happen at fucking all. guys saying they were going to beat the hell out of them or even say they were going to kill them. there was one day that was the worst of them all. me josh casey ryan and shaylee went to go smoke behind the baseball feilds and we had to pass the shit kickers group in the parking lot to get there. well we go and light up our smokes look back and there they were all the shit kickers. my friend josh had said something about a kid named vance stephens. a short little fat shit kicker. and mika holder noah campfeild cody gailbreath and the others that were there started trying to get josh to fight them and he would because there was five of us and somewhere close to thirty of them. so we finished our smokes and went to leave and mika holder took a little pussy shot at josh and hit him in the back of his head. then all of them were there throwing punches. we backed them up and they left well josh went into the lunch room with us and all the freaks saw josh and we told them what happened and every freak in there stood up at the same time even some people that we didnt know and every one of us headed out to the parking lot that they sat in. everyone in the lunch room poured out the doors and followed they knew what was fixing to happen. we all went straight up to the shit kickers and all they did was fucking talk. that was the only time we had just as many people as them. and all they did was talk until they cops teachers and adminisrators came out there. the cops showed and everybody scattered. then it was like that for the rest of the year. weatherford high school had threats of the shit kickers bringing guns and killing the freaks. what a pussy way to deal with a problem. well its not like that this year. but that was a year to remember. i will never forget that year. but i still have one shit kicker that i have a problem with chisum smith. THE BIGGEST BITCH IN WEATHERFORD!!!! hes a narc. thats a thing you just dont do. he denies it but he was the only one that knew about the drugs other than the person they were for. if the cops would have busted me ten minutes later i would of been clear and they wouldnt of found nothing. so i still hate chisum for that shit. thats not something that you just let go. well i hope everybody enjoyed that history on the weatherford high school. and i still dont know why that shit started but it did and there was more but its too much to fit on here. lets see there was the time shane maconahay hit a pregnant girl in the stomache and when those two shit kickers said they were going to beat my best friend christina hale up. so ill post more when i get a chance. | |

| Jehovah's Witnesses | December 3, 2006, 4:52PM |
 by: Darkestcorner |
|
Alright, I've read from being to end all af the current articles pertaining to people beliefs surrounding this religion. I also an expanse knowledge of it from my mother who is currently a Jehovah's Witness herself. I do understand that people are entitled to their own opinions, but honestly if you choose to express your opinion on something get your facts straight. I have attended meetings with my mother so i know first hand what happens at these gatherings, and have an expanse knowledge of the things that are taught. It is true that there are many differences between Christianity and The Religion Of Jehovah's Witnesses. It is indeed taught in TROJW that the trinity does not exist and that Christ is the Son of God. However, the idea that the religion was created by a single man is proved ridiculous by looking in both the bible of Jehovah's witnesses and that of Christianity. Where the idea that a man created this religion comes from I do not personaly know, and I have never heard of it before now. But how could that be true? How could one man have created the bible, the bible that holds predictions consisistent to our times? How could one man have known so many years ago that in these current times the world would be at war with itself? Many just put this off to human nature to realize the world is imperfect. On the subject of TROJW refering to god as Jehovah, you need only to refer to the ancient hebrew testaments. In the testaments god is refered to as Yaweh which is defined literally as a name of God, transliterated by scholars from the Tetragrammaton and commonly rendered Jehovah. And in many Christian bible it is written in subscript that the name Jehovah has been excluded from the writings. Then there is the question of why Jehovah's Witnesses do no celebrate holidays. The two examples I will refer to are birthdays and Christmas. The reason that JW do not celebrate birthdays is simply that at the two earliest recorded birthdays that were celebrated two of Christ's apostles were executed. One being John The Baptist at the birthday celebration of Herod Antipas, shortly before the passover of 32 C.E.. During Herod's party Salome, his non-biological daughter with Herodias (who hated John), was sent in to dance for the quests. Herod was so pleased that declared to her in front of all his guest that he would give her anything she wanted up to half of his kingdom. Salome consulted with her mother over what to ask for. Herodias saw this as a chance to kill Jn, and told her daughter to ask for John's head on a plate. Herod was greatly distressed for he knew John was innocent, but he also didn't want to be considered weak by his companions so he consented. Jehovah's witnesses therefore do not celebrate this holiday, as it would be as if they were condoning the unjust death of an innocent man. Then there is Christmas. I'm sure most people have been told JW don't celebrate this holiday because Christ could not have been born in the winter since there were sheperds with there flocks. Although this is quite likely true it is not the reason. JW believe in celebrating Christ's death because that is what forgave our sins, not his birth. So, at the first full moon every April, JW congregate to celebrate his death that forgave our sins. Although many churches also celebrate this occasion, many of them also feed the wine and bread to all of the members, whereas in the ROJW only special people are allowed too. These people are refered to as the annointed. The annointed are a group 144,000 men and women dead, living, and yet to be born that are chosen to reign with God in heaven after their deaths. Which leads on to the fact that unlike Christians, JW do not believe that you go to Heaven when you die. Rather, you go into a deep sleep from which you will awaken after Armageddon(or Judgement day). For JW also believe that when you die all of your sins are forgiven because you have made the ultimate sacrifice which is your very life. Then there is also the reaction to the door to door service JW partake in. Even if you refuse to take what their saying to heart at least be civil. I mean they're just people who believe in this way and want to spread this knowledge to other people. And its not like I haven't had Christians come to my door( every sunday morning as a matter of fact) but even though I've brought up believing different things I still take the time to see their views of things. If nothing else just pretend your're not home and just leave the people alone. They themselves are civil even in the face of rejection so why waste your breathe trying to upset or scare them? Finally, there's the subject of JW being a brainwashing cult. If you've read up till now you probably think I'm brainwashed myself. Though truthfully I have a lot against it myself, and constantly I question its validity. No one forces me to believe every word, and very often I don't. How would I be allowed to think individually if I was truly brainwashed? Would I not go around screaming what I believed to be the truth? More than one person knows I probably won't become baptised including my mom, and she is yet to disown me for it. I myself have never met or heard of someone who was kicked out of the religion and was thus disowned by their family. My grandfather never went to meetings and my grandmother loved him just the same till the day she died. If any family has disowned a member who left the religion it was for some deeper reason. Once again I do understand that every one is entitled to their opinion, and I'm not saying everyone should become a JW. I'm simply shedding some light on why they do or do not do certain things. | |

| Please please please, just think a bit while reading this.. | December 1, 2006, 11:51PM |

Now I'm going to rant about quite a few things, but don't worry it will be orderly and I hope as precise as I can make it. Please, the only thing I ask is for your strongest criticism. First off, religion. Which has apparently been a bit of a hot topic in the articles page. I'm taking side of religion, since of course I am Christian. And for every person who ever doubted religion. I dare you, I honestly dare you. Go to your nearest church, ask the pastor or reverend to go into depth with you about the true horrors of the world, demonology. Either one of two things will happen. 1. He tells you what he knows, which may not always be much. Since, deep knowledge of demonology holds true power. Honest knowledge of demons and devils may openly expose one to demonic horrors. Instead of teaching the use and summoning of demons the seminary teaches the defense against them. {Also note: a Christian minister is not allowed to know the full extent of demonology, it is known to be dangerous to the minister. And so the synod does not teach it all} 2. Or, the minister will look you in the eye for a few seconds. And simply say no. And explain to you the torment demons can inflict on a person with full knowledge of their existence. {The only people who were trained fully in demonology, were the exorcists of the Catholic church. But due to modern views of the world and the known, and constant, danger to the exorcists led to the disbandment of the teachings and the order of exorcists.} Even people who have little knowledge of demons can be afflicted by their torment, temptation, and sometimes horrific dreams, that often involve the demon appearing to the person. And when you know about it, there is little you can do to defend yourself against it. So, I urge you to try it honestly, if you don't believe in God now. A demon in the form of a red boar, moldy and rotten. Pulsing with the grotesque things of hell whose mere presence is torment to your mind and has often led men and women, tampering in the art of summoning, to lose their mind in terror, might just convince you. Secondly, school and their stance on teaching languages. Now I and 100% for mandatory school. It's just the system our nation uses, is so stupid it makes not want to be a part of it. It's fact that students learn languages faster, the younger they start the study of them. So then why is it that public schools do not start languages until 6th grade? Thirdly, it seems as though people have forgotten what war is. Now I'm sure you've heard this at least once. Or a dozen times, but the war in Iraq is only considered a major war, because it's pretty much the only war. And for a war, it's a pathetic one. I mean it's obvious that modern day war fare is pretty much way more than any Middle Eastern country can handle. And yes, the U.S. army is pretty much at the lowest it's been in a long time. But that's because millions troops are not necessary. The fact that we lost less than 6,000 troops in Iraq is a huge military success. Since the last time the U.S. was involved in what's considered to be a major war. We lost tens of thousands of troops. Hundreds per day. And just before that in World War II, it was common news that 6,000 some soldiers died per day. People are just forgetting the fact that war is a dirty, filthy thing. But it is absolutely necessary. Any person that says that the U.S. can pull out of Iraq and not expect a terrorist attack in the following month can shove their democratic anti-war efforts up their ass, because it's not gunna’ happen. America pulling out of Iraq, to the Middle East, would mark a HUGE victory. And series upon series of attacks would be made all over the world. With no pressure in the Middle East, terrorist cells would flourish. Which brings me to my fourth thing, the Islamic religion. Which has proven to be the only religion in the world that is bound to constant and everlasting war. Their Holy Book pretty much says to convert or kill anyone who doesn’t believe what they believe. And a Muslim who doesn’t believe that, really isn’t any Muslim at all. Thanks to Islam, it’s hard to point out a decade of solid peace in the Middle East. The last thing I want to touch on is something I really cannot stand. And that is America's stance on communism. When the most powerful nation in the world pretty much takes a stance against communism, a nation that supports equality. What do you say? Now, to break communism down, it's the idea that people work in collective groups and give all of their products to the government. And according to the economy are paid back evenly. Everyone makes the same amount of money. A major divider of equality in our country is money. When the rich can get away with murder, due to their world renowned attorneys. Where is the judicial system to create balance? In my opinion, the government is only against communism, because it throws a huge block in the way of them making money in that country. Due to the typical communist trade policy and a communist nations ability to have cheap labor. And, the only reason the average U.S. citizen thinks communism is bad, is because their government told them so. Which, is so terribly sad, and pathetic. But it's okay! The O.C. is on! Here to wash away all of your problems, as you try to relate your life to the dramatic scripted lives so cunningly written during the off season. Just like God was originally intended to do! | |
